2. Announcements Quiz #1 on Friday Homework Packet Due Thursday
Raven Way Expectations Review:
Coming into Class (Quickly, Positively, & Calmly)
Bathroom Breaks
Leaving Class (Be cool to your peers!)
Positivity  (Introducing The Shout Out Wall, Reinstating the Weekly Raffle, and Introducing The Ear)

3. Agenda for the Week…
Today is the official beginning of our last major unit of study together:
“FORCES AND MOTION”
We have VERY limited time to complete a lot of information, let’s make it count!

4. Agenda for the week
For this unit, I am going to try to have regular mini labs to get you up and out of your seat “DOING SCIENCE”
You must have exceptional behavior and use your quiet partner voices for this to work. REMEMBER: You all want science to be fun, but it has to be a safe and orderly environment.
Many of the materials (cars, balls, etc.) I have borrowed from friends. PLEASE TAKE EXCEPTIONAL CARE OF THESE ITEMS.
Lost or stolen materials = NO MORE LABS

5. Agenda for the Unit…
In addition to mini-labs, this week you may have an outside lab.
In order to earn this privilege, you will need to meet class expectations as well as complete a pre-lab sheet.
I have planned to do a super fun activity at the end of every week if as your behavior and attitude warrant me doing so.
*I have scheduled our Frog Dissection! We’re just waiting for our frogs to come in I will give you all the dissection date as soon as they arrive!

6. Today we are going to… Learn some of the very basic vocabulary
Position, Motion, Distance, and Speed
Watch a couple of videos
Take some guided notes
Participate in a Mini-Lab
Learn how to calculate
speed.

Please title your notes “Forces and Motion” Then copy the diagram and words.

8. Preview of what we are going to talk about this week…. “Laws of Motion”

9. Position POSITION is the location of a place or object.
Often you describe where something is by comparing its position with that of something else

10. Reference Points
Each time you identify the position of an object, you are comparing the location of the object, you are comparing the location of the object with another location or place
The object or location to which you compare other objects or
locations is called a
REFERENCE POINT.

11. Video: “Bodies in Motion”

12. Distance DISTANCE is the measurement of two positions
In science, we measure distance in METERS
Kilometers for long distances
Centimeters for short distances

13. Distance can be either straight line or a measure of a path taken…
Question: How would the distance of the path of this maze be different from a straight line measurement?

14. MOTION… MOTION is the change of position over time.
Motion can be either:
VERTICAL
HORIZONTAL

15. SOME IMPORTANT THINGS TO NOTE….
Motion does NOT indicate how quickly something changed position
This is SPEED, something we will learn in a moment
Motion can change direction

16. Check for Understanding…
What is the name for the location of a place or object?
How does scientists measure distance?
Motion can be __________ or ______________.
The location or object to which you compare other objects or locations is the ____________.

17. What is the name for the location of a place or object?
POSITION
How does scientists measure distance?
In METERS
Motion can be __________ or ______________.
Motion can be VERTICAL or HORIZONTAL.
The location or object to which you compare other objects or locations is the ____________.
REFERENCE POINT

18. Finally, what is speed??? Speed is a “rate of motion”
It is measured as a distance over time
SPEED = DISTANCE
TIME
Or speed = m/s

19. Mini-Lab: How can you measure speed?
iPods, Smart Phones
Expectations

20. Mini-Lab: How can you measure speed?
Turn to page D16 in the textbook. You will work with in groups of 3 to complete the short task “EXPLORE SPEED”. You have 5 minutes to complete this and turn in the “WHAT DO YOU THINK?” questions as part of your exit ticket. 2 people to roll balls Team Captain will use stopwatch to record time.

21. DISCUSSION: SPEED You actually already know a great deal about speed.
What does the speed limit on the road stand for?
MILES PER HOUR
Or miles
hour
Remember our formula for speed?

22. Calculating Speed
A wheelchair racer completes a 100 meter course in 20 seconds. What is his speed? 5 meters per second!

23. Calculating Speed
If a car travels 400 meters in 20 seconds how fast is it going?
Answer: 20 m/s

24. EXIT TICKET
Mr. K’s class is 10 meters away. If it takes you 8 seconds to get there, what is your speed?
The Gym is 100 meters away. If it takes you 90 seconds to walk there, what is your speed?
Put your exit ticket in THE BIN and work on your homework when you’ve finished. 
